It is with great sorrow we announce the passing of Mary Serwa on November 30, 2011.  Mary was predeceased by her loving husband of 49 years, Albert, in 2001, as well as her brother, Mark Taylor and sisters Liz Taylor and Lil Titanich.

Mary is survived by her son, David and his sons Ryan, Derrick (Christine) and Levi  as well as her daughters Darlene Laramie and Yvonne Svensson and Darlene’s children Taylor Laramie (Tanie) and Jaime Edmondson (Shaun) and by her close friend Jerry Sandhu.  She will be sorely missed by her many grand dogs.

Mary’s adventurous spirit took her from Roblin, Manitoba in the early 1950’s to Kelowna where she met and married Albert, the love of her life.  Long-time Glenmore residents, Mary and Albert ran the family farm and many other businesses over the years.  Mary was dedicated to her community and served four terms as a city alderman from 1973 to 1982.  She also served on the Regional District, the Glenmore Irrigation District and was a founding member of the Grape Growers Association.
